The 2025 IAME Euro Series drew to a close with its fourth and final round at Mariembourg, where the weather was forecast for a wet weekend but instead delivered a mix of conditions that kept teams guessing. Rain played its part early, shaking up Friday’s qualifying and the opening heats, while staying away on Saturday and making its return on Sunday with light drizzles and sudden bursts of sunshine that created ever-changing grip levels. The most dramatic twist came in the Junior final, where a shower during the formation lap sparked chaos and forced bold tyre choices. Between the shifting skies and the fierce on-track battles, Mariembourg provided a fittingly unpredictable backdrop for the season finale.

The German Kart Championship kicked off the second half of its season last weekend at the historic Erftlandring in Kerpen. At the fourth of five race weekends, more than 200 drivers lined up on the 1,107-meter cult track. In front of packed grandstands and under consistently dry late-summer weather, the six classes delivered thrilling karting action — including the first championship decision in the Minis. The final winners in Kerpen were Markus Kajak (DKM), Marc Alexander Reistrup (DJKM), Jeffrey Fikse (DSKC), Devin Titz (DMKM), Maxim Becker (X30 Junior) and Lars Ramaer (X30 Senior).
